Amaç: Bu çalışmada, pediatrik dermatoloji bölümüne ağız ve dudak şikayeti ile başvuran hastaların sıklığı, demografik özelliklerinin belirlenmesi ve olguların epidemiyolojik verilerinin literatür ile karşılaştırılması amaçlandı.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Ocak -Aralık 2011 tarihleri arasında Pediatrik Dermatoloji Polikliniğine başvuran 0-16 yaş arasındaki 3000 çocuk retrospektif olarak incelendi. Bunlardan ağız ve dudaklarda yakınmayla getirilen 110 çocuk; yaş, cinsiyet, sosyo-ekonomik düzey ilaç kullanımı, geçirdiği hastalıklar, sistemik hastalık, genetik hastalık varlığı ve demografik özellikler açısından değerlendirildi. Tanı ve eşlik eden hastalıklara yönelik yapılan laboratuvar tetkikleri kaydedildi. Hastalar demografik verilere ve tanılara göre gruplandırıldı.Bulgular: Ağız yakınmalarıyla getirilen çocuk hastaların 64’ü kız (%58), 46’sı erkek (%42)’ti. Yüz on hastada (%3.6) 15 çeşit oral mukoza hastalığı saptandı. Yaş gruplarına göre yapılan değerlendirmede oral mukoza hastalıklarının %17.2’si (n=19 ) 0-2 yaşta, %26.9’ü (n= 29) 3-5 yaşta, %36.3’ü (n=40) 6-11 yaşta, %20.1’i (n=22) 11-16 yaşta görülmüştür. Çocuklarda oral mukoza hastalıkları içinde en sık rekürren aftöz stomatit ( RAS) % 16.3 (n=18), perioral dermatit %14.5 (n=16), el ayak ağız hastalığı %13.6 (n= 15) saptandı.Sonuç: Çocuklarda oral mukoza hastalıkları, sistemik bir hastalığın belirtisi olabilmesi, büyüme ve gelişmeyi etkilemesi ve psikolojik sorunlara yol açabilmesi nedeniyle daha iyi tanınmalı, tedaviye erken başlamalıdır.
Objective: Our aim was to determine the frequency and demographic characteristics of the patients presenting at the department of pediatric dermatology with complaints of mouth and lip lesions and to compare their epidemiological data with the literature in this study.Material and Methods: Of the 3000 children aged between 0 and 16 who presented at the pediatric dermatology outpatients between 2011 January and 2011 December, the children who had been brought with complaints of mouth and lip sores were retrospectively assessed in terms of age, gender, socio-economic level (SEL), medicine use, disease history, systemic disease and presence of genetic disease.Results: Of the pediatric patients brought with mouth complaints, 64 (58%) were girls and 46 (42%) were boys. Fifteen different oral mucosal diseases were detected in 110 patients (3.6%). The most frequent oral mucosal diseases were RAS (recurrent aphthous stomatitis) (16.3%, n=18), perioral dermatitis (14.5%, n=16), and hand foot mouth disease (13.6%, n= 15). Conclusion: Although oral mucosal diseases are less frequently seen in children compared to adults, early diagnosis and treatment are important since they may be a sign of systemic disease, affect growth and development and may lead to psychological problems
